Circa Survivor Report: Week 13
Circa Survivor Report: Week 13 CIRCA SURVIVOR WEEK 13: 96% OF POOL ADVANCE AS FAVORITES DOMINATE In the Circa Survivor contest, Week 13 is broken down into two separate weeks, which commences with a pick from either the three Thanksgiving Day games or the stand-alone Black Friday matchup. FullTime Fantasy recaps the holiday slate with our Circa Survivor Report: Week 13. All 54 remaining entrants in Week 13-A ‘picked correctly’ when all four home favorites emerged victorious. The sharp players remaining in this Circa Survivor pool picked well, not a single entry gets eliminated in the Thanksgiving Week 13a. Week 13b is right around the corner! GET YOUR PICKS IN!#CircaSurvivor #CircaSports #SurvivorSweat pic.twitter.com/cc41igCzCL — Survivor Sweat (@SurvivorSweat) November 29, 2024 With only 14 seconds left in the game, the Raiders were called for an illegal shift penalty on a play where they turned the ball over after the ball smacked off the body of QB Aidan O’Connell who was not ready for the snap. The turnover at the Chiefs’ 38-yard line prevented Las Vegas from attempting a game-winning field goal. The Raiders fumble it, the Chiefs recover it to seal the game ‼️#LVvsKC on Prime Video Also streaming on #NFLPlus pic.twitter.com/WvNvUONRM5 — NFL (@NFL) November 29, 2024 Overall on Week 13, favorites posted a solid mark of 10-3 straight-up (SU) and 10-3-1 ATS which resulted in very few of those remaining in Circa’s Survivor contest knocked out. In Week 13-B, which involved Sunday’s slate and Monday’s showdown between the Broncos and Browns, only two underdogs – Pittsburgh and Philadelphia – pulled outright upsets. Cincinnati, who hosted AFC rival Pittsburgh as 3-point favorites, eliminated two Circa remaining entrants after suffering a 44-38 loss. skadoosh pic.twitter.com/64DuCvqDwY — Pittsburgh Steelers (@steelers) December 1, 2024 After seeing only two entrants eliminated, only 52 of the starting 14,266 entries remain alive! Week 13b comes to a close with 52 entries still remaining. Nice job to the Survivor community as a whole! Let’s starting looking ahead to Week 14 shall we? #CircaSurvivor #CircaSports #SurvivorSweat pic.twitter.com/cjGTtng4Cx — Survivor Sweat (@SurvivorSweat) December 3, 2024 The Circa Survivor contest is a grueling contest that forces entrants to pick one winner every week, with no spread with one pivotal caveat. Entrants CAN NOT use the same team more than once during the season. The journey for the biggest Survivor prize in history ($14,266,000) will continue into Week 14 with some tough decisions. After entrants who still haven’t used Philadelphia (-12.5) vs Carolina, Tampa Bay (-7) vs Las Vegas, Miami (-7) vs NY Jets, or Pittsburgh (-7) vs Cleveland the sledding will not be easy to navigate since Baltimore, Denver, Houston, Indianapolis, New England, and Washington are all on bye. From a full betting perspective, favorites hold a sizable 133-59 SU (69.3%) and 102-86-5 ATS (54.3%) edge. Home teams hold a slim 96-94 SU (50.5%) advantage (five international games) while road teams hold the coveted 101-84-5 ATS (54.6%) edge.

Fantasy Football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em Week 13
Fantasy Football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em Week 13 As the fantasy football season barrels into Week 13, the stakes couldn’t be higher. For some, it’s a must-win scenario to secure that coveted playoff spot; for others, it’s about jockeying for seeding or spoiling a rival’s season. Every lineup decision matters, and with the fantasy landscape constantly shifting due to injuries, matchups, and player trends, navigating who to start and sit has never been more critical. Whoever you are, Fantasy Football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em Week 13 has you covered. Dive in as we break down the best and worst matchups across every position, helping you make the calls that will lead you to Week 13 glory. Let’s set those winning lineups and keep the playoff dreams alive! Subsequently, our Fantasy Football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em Week 13 will help you navigate that turbulence to pick a winning lineup this week. Additionally, FullTime Fantasy has some of the top tools of the trade and accurate rankings. Quarterbacks Start ‘Em Bo Nix, Denver Broncos vs. Browns Bo Nix began the season slowly, but he’s been on a roll since Week 5, averaging 21 fantasy points per game, which places him fourth among quarterbacks in that span. His workload has been stellar, ranking top six in both passing and rushing attempts for QBs during this period. This week, he faces the Cleveland Browns, a defense with a mixed bag of strengths and weaknesses. They rank third in pass-rush grade but second-worst in coverage. Much of their pressure stems from Myles Garrett, the top-rated healthy edge rusher this season. Fortunately for Nix, Garrett typically lines up against the right tackle, which pits him against Garett Bolles a top tackle in the NFL. Nix also offers rushing upside. Anthony Richardson, Indianapolis Colts vs. Patriots Anthony Richardson remains a high-risk, high-reward play. Last week’s 12.98 points against the Lions was a reminder of his low floor. The Colts have leaned on Richardson’s rushing ability recently, with 10 carries in each of his last two games, generating 21 fantasy points on the ground over that span. The Patriots’ defense could set the stage for a big performance. They’ve allowed the most passing touchdowns in the league since Week 8 and rank in the top 10 for passing yards and touchdowns allowed to quarterbacks. Richardson isn’t a lock, but if you’re looking for a high-ceiling option during a crucial stretch of the season, he’s worth the gamble. Sit ‘Em Kyler Murray, Arizona Cardinals vs. Vikings Kyler Murray’s inconsistency continued with a 10.3-point performance in Week 12. He’s now scored under 16.2 points in three of five road games, and the Vikings present another tough test. Minnesota has allowed only four quarterbacks to surpass 20 fantasy points this season and is the best in the league at limiting rushing yards to QBs. Murray’s floor makes him hard to trust this week. Geno Smith, Seattle Seahawks vs. Jets After a hot start, Geno Smith has cooled significantly, averaging just 16.1 points per game since Week 6. He now faces a Jets defense that ranks as the second-toughest matchup for quarterbacks. With limited upside and a tough opponent, Smith is a risky play in Week 13. Running Backs Start ‘Em Bucky Irving, Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Panthers Bucky Irving saw a notable increase in usage last week, playing over 50% of offensive snaps for the first time this season alongside Rachaad White. After seeing double-digit carries in his last two games—a rarity earlier in the year—Irving’s role appears to be growing. The matchup couldn’t be more favorable. The Panthers have surrendered the most fantasy points to running backs this season, making Irving a prime start in Week 13. Chase Brown, Cincinnati Bengals vs. Steelers Chase Brown has been a fantasy revelation in Zack Moss’s absence, averaging 22 points per game over the last three weeks while playing at least 80% of offensive snaps. His production has come despite tough matchups against the Ravens and Chargers, two of the stingiest defenses against running backs. While the Steelers present another challenging matchup, Brown’s workload and consistency make him a reliable option. He’s worth starting again this week. Sit ‘Em Nick Chubb, Cleveland Browns vs. Broncos Chubb came through last week, but his two-touchdown performance masked underlying concerns. Without scores, he’s averaging just 4.9 fantasy points per game this season. The Broncos have allowed only five rushing touchdowns to running backs, making Chubb a TD-dependent option you may want to avoid. Travis Etienne, Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Texans Travis Etienne has struggled lately, failing to exceed 6.3 PPR points in three consecutive games. While Trevor Lawrence’s return may boost the Jaguars’ offense, the Texans remain a tough matchup, ranking fifth in fewest points allowed to running backs. Etienne is a risky flex play this week. Wide Receivers Start ‘Em Ladd McConkey, Los Angeles Chargers vs. Falcons Ladd McConkey enters Week 13 on fire, earning a solid WR2 status in all formats. Over his last two games against Cincinnati and Baltimore, he’s racked up 12 catches for 206 yards on 15 targets, scoring at least 14.3 PPR points each time. The matchup against the Falcons is enticing, as Atlanta ranks fourth in most fantasy points allowed to wide receivers. With several pass-catchers finding success against this defense in recent weeks, McConkey is well-positioned for another strong outing. Brian Thomas, Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Texans Brian Thomas should see a major boost with Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) returning in Week 13. While he held his own with Mac Jones in Week 11, Thomas’s ceiling is much higher with Lawrence under center. He’s topped 15 PPR points in two of his last three games with Lawrence, and the absence of Gabe Davis and Christian Kirk could elevate his target share. The Texans, meanwhile, rank eighth in fantasy points allowed to receivers, making this a golden opportunity for Thomas to shine. Sit ‘Em Deebo Samuel, San Francisco 49ers vs. Bills With Brock Purdy’s status uncertain and snow potentially affecting this
Week 13 Sleepers & Emerging Players
Week 13 Sleepers, Potential-Emergent Players, and Opportunistic Plays This article is contributed by Brad Kruse This column is NOT intended to provide Week 13 waiver claims lists. Instead, the purpose is to look at young players whose opportunity could emerge and should be monitored. I will also look at potential injury replacement players, but I will try not to focus on the obvious choices for this week’s slate of games as that is covered elsewhere on the sight. My goal is to help look around corners for the season which might give some ideas for pre-emptive adds to your roster with Week 13 Sleepers & Emerging Players. This week I’ll focus exclusively on the young receivers and review how they’ve performed using targets per route run and yards per route run metrics. A minimum of ten targets is required to be included in the list below. Young Breakout Receivers (through Week 12) The above table looks at all first and second-year WRs who have at least 15% targets per route run (TPRR) and 1.5 Yards per route run (YPRR) through ten weeks this year. Below are some comments on players who stood out in Week 12. Second-Year Players Jordan Addison: Addison turned in a huge week collecting eight receptions for 162 yards and one touchdown. He did this on nine targets and earned a 25% targets per route run (TPRR) and an incredible 4.5 yards per route run (YPRR). For the year, Addison earned a respectable 20% TPRR and 2.1 YPRR. Puka Nacua: Nacua continues to deliver for fantasy teams. He recorded 37% TPRR and 3.3 YPRR this week. He caught nine balls for 1117 yards scoreless yards. For the year, Nacua has recorded 35% TPRR and 3.2 YPRR over his six-game sample. Demario Douglas: Douglas had a useable week catching six balls for 62 yards. That amounted to 22% TPRR and 1.9 YPRR. For the year, he’s recorded a 22% TPRR and 1.6 YPRR. He’s a fringe start decision each week as a flex and an excellent bye-week replacement. Quentin Johnston: Johnston only caught two of eight targets, but did get 48 yards and a touchdown to salvage his fantasy day. He’s averaging 12 ppg which is a solid bounce back from a difficult rookie campaign. Additionally, he also collected a 21% TPRR and a 2.1 YPRR on the year. He appears to be a piece of the rebuilding receiving room for the Chargers. Rookies Ladd McConkey: McConkey played on Monday night, so the route data isn’t available at the time of this writing, but he continues to look like the top option in the passing game. Devaughn Vele: Vele is getting used more by the Broncos and has demonstrated an ability to earn targets for Bo Nix. This week he caught six of nine targets for 80 yards giving him a 41% TPRR and 3.6 YPRR for the week. For the year, he’s collecting 24% TPRR and 2.1 YPRR. Malik Nabers: This wasn’t a peak Nabers performance week. He caught six of nine targets for 64 yards. That equated to a 24% TPRR and a 1.7 YPRR. That brings his YTD performance to 31% TPRR and 2.0 YPRR. Rome Odunze: Odunze didn’t enjoy the fantasy day of his fellow receivers. However, he earned 10 targets, catching five of them for 39 yards. The offense shows some signs of improvement, and Odunze is a full-time receiver for the Bears. He did manage a 22% TPRR this week for a woeful 0.8 YPRR. That brings his YTD metrics to 19% TPRR and 1.4 YPRR. ENTER OUR WEEK 13 DRAFT CONTEST! How it Works: First, you draft your team using our On-Demand Simulator.

Week 13 NFL Player Props
For the fourth consecutive week, we dropped a 3-3 record with our player props wagers. However, due to an added sprinkle on Ladd McConkey’s receiving yardage line, we managed to profit in Week 12. It wasn’t technically one of the plays last week but since it was mentioned in the Justin Herbert writeup, I’m going to count it. And the plus-odds bet on Mike Evans’ receiving yardage was a nice little victory. Still, we only gained +.45 Units and are now an even +4.0 Units on the season. Despite still being in the green, it’s time for us to catch fire like the first few weeks of the campaign with Week 13 NFL Player Props!
We are due for a big week and it might come during the festive holidays. For Thanksgiving, we will discuss some Turkey Day props, as well as a few over the weekend. In Week 13, instead of providing you with my favorite six or seven props, I will list my top 10 player props.
Remember to always odds shop at your different sportsbooks to find the best value for these props. With that in mind, let’s get down to business and find the best Week 13 NFL Player Props!
Derek Carr OVER 214.5 Passing Yards (-110)
Derek Carr’s passing yards line for Week 13 against the Rams looks attainable based on a few key metrics and trends this season. Not to mention, he helped us triple up a few weeks ago so we’re going back to the well despite the lack of weapons surrounding him.
Consistent passing volume has helped Carr as the Saints are typically playing from behind. Carr has surpassed this line in 8 of his last 10 games. This consistency underscores his role in the Saints offense, which leans heavily on his arm, especially in matchups where they face defensive vulnerabilities in the secondary. Which leads me to my next point.
The Rams have had some serious defensive struggles in 2024. The Rams have allowed over 243 passing yards per game this season, ranking among the league’s bottom-tier pass defenses. Their secondary has struggled to contain opposing quarterbacks, giving Carr an advantageous matchup.
And although Carr doesn’t have the weapons that he once started the season with, the Rams’ defense has shown a tendency to allow massive big-chunk plays, providing Carr with the opportunity to rack up yards efficiently. Not to mention, the game script should favor the veteran signal-caller eclipsing this line. The Rams’ offense can score quickly with Matthew Stafford, Kyren Williams, Puka Nacua, and Cooper Kupp, which would force the Saints to keep up. This dynamic increases Carr’s likelihood of exceeding his yardage line as the Saints try to stay competitive.
All of these factors and trends point towards Carr surpassing this line. Don’t forget that he has easily eclipsed this prop line in three consecutive games since returning from a mid-season injury. This bodes well for Carr on Sunday. Smash…

Injury Report: Week 13
Injury Report: Week 13 Welcome to (Un)Lucky Week 13. It’s a holiday slate for the NFL and fantasy football, with three Thursday tilts and the first-ever Black Friday game. Before you start on the turkey prep, our Injury Report: Week 13 catches you up on all the latest fantasy-relevant injury news ahead of the Week 13 waiver wire claims. Also, a great starting point for staying updated on the latest injuries is to bookmark our NFL Injury Report. Finally, FullTime Fantasy Members will get the latest NFL injury news and advice live each Sunday and Thursday in the FullTime Fantasy Discord. Click below to join us today! Week 13 BYES: NONE Josh Downs (WR) Indianapolis Colts – Downs is “week-to-week” with a shoulder injury. However, with Indianapolis on bye in Week 14, he is unlikely to play in New England. J.K. Dobbins (RB) Los Angeles Chargers – Dobbins injured his knee on Monday night. He later returned with a brace but did not return to action. We will have updates in Discord when news breaks on the severity of the injury. Austin Ekeler (RB) Washington Commanders – In the waning moments of Washington’s Week 12 loss, Ekeler was felled by a scary-looking head injury. He was diagnosed with his second concussion of 2024. That essentially assures that Ekeler will miss Week 13. With Brian Robinson (ankle) also ailing, target Jeremy McNichols on the waiver wire. Isiah Pacheco (RB) Kansas City Chiefs – The Chiefs will play in the NFL’s first Black Friday game and are expected to welcome back star RB Isiah Pacheco. His return will be huge for fantasy managers. However, Kareem Hunt will be relegated to an afterthought role.🚀 According to @profootballdoc THIS is the week Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco returns! And yes, he said December but was off because of the Black Friday game… #ChiefsKingdom pic.twitter.com/JkV7CL0Qjh — Sports Injury Central (@SICscore) November 26, 2024 Brock Purdy (QB) San Francisco 49ers – Purdy missed Week 12 with a shoulder injury. However, he was able to do some light throwing on Monday, so there is hope that he will play this week. David Montgomery (RB) Detroit Lions – Fortunatley, Montgomery avoided a serious injury and looks good for Thursday’s tilt. #Lions RB David Montgomery on facing his ex-Bears team: “it always feels a little different so, I’ll be ready.” pic.twitter.com/5cRD8DsIIt — Eric Woodyard (@E_Woodyard) November 24, 2024 Brandin Cooks (WR) Dallas Cowboys – Cooks (knee) returned to the practice field Monday and has a good shot at returning to the Dallas lineup on Thursday. Jake Ferguson (TE) Dallas Cowboys – Ferguson (concussion) is still not practicing and is unlikely to play on Thursday. Luke Schoonmaker will fill in. Ja’Tavion Sanders (TE) Carolina Panthers – Good news after Sanders landed on his head. His neck injury isn’t serious and he was in Carolina’s facilities Monday. Ja’Tavion Sanders avoided a serious injury, per Dave Canales. It is a neck injury and they are working through the evaluation of the injury. He’s in the building (or at least was). #Panthers — Mike Kaye (@mike_e_kaye) November 25, 2024 Tommy DeVito (QB) New York Giants – DeVito is dealing with a minor forearm injury. Drew Lock will start if DeVito is unable to suit up by Thursday. Tyler Higbee (TE) Los Angeles Rams – The Rams will welcome Higbee (knee) back to practice this week. However, he is just beginning to ramp up activity after a brutal knee injury late last season. Also, the Rams are barely in playoff contention, so there may be no reason to risk Higbee’s long-term health for a lost cause. Gardner Minshew (QB) Los Angeles Raiders – Minshew Mania has come to an end as Gardner Minshew broke his collarbone and will miss the remainder of the season. Hayden Hurst (TE) Los Angeles Chargers – The Chargers placed Hurst on IR, essentially ending his fantasy season. ENTER OUR WEEK 13 DRAFT CONTEST!

Waiver Wire: Week 13
Waiver Wire: Week 13 After a wild Week 12 that was marred by six teams on bye, the holiday Week 13 brings the field up to full strength. The playoffs are now within site, making this Thanksgiving slate the most
After a wild Week 12 that was marred by six teams on bye, the holiday Week 13 brings the field up to full strength. The playoffs are now within site, making this Thanksgiving slate the most important. Our Waiver Wire: Week 13 will help you reinforce your rosters for the final push.
Along with knowing who to pick up, FullTime Fantasy‘s Matchup Analyzer Tool will help you get the most out of your lineup.
Here are the low-rostered players you should consider adding before Week 13. Also, a friendly reminder that the first-ever Black Friday Game will take place this week, in addition to three Thursday tilts.
Week 13 BYES: NONE
Jeremy McNichols (RB) Washington Commanders – Brian Robinson got injured early in Week 13 and Austin Ekeler suffered a late concussion. Ekeler is very unlikely to play and Robinson could miss time. That puts McNichols in line to have a significant role at home against the Titans. McNichols has been productive with limited touches, so he’s a priority add worth 8-10% of your remaining FAAB. Teammate Chris Rodriguez can also be targeted in deeper leagues.
Keon Coleman (WR) Buffalo Bills – Out of sight, out of mind. Coleman has now missed three weeks of action. It’s plausible that his manager was forced to drop him last week just to field a credible Week 12 lineup. If that’s the case, make Coleman one of…

Week 15 DFS: Tight End Report
The Browns/Jaguars game delivered the top two tight ends for Week 14. Evan Engram (11/95/02 had the best game of his career, coming on the heels of scoring his first touchdown (9/82/1) the previous week. David Njoku (6/91/2) also scored twice. The Rams decided not to cover Isaiah Likely on his 54-yard scamper for a touchdown, setting up a Mark Andrews-type day (5/83/1). Hunter Henry (19.00) and George Kittle (16.60) rounded out the top five in fantasy points. Here are the top five tight ends by scoring average after 14 weeks:
- Travis Kelce (15.28)
- T.J. Hockenson (15.22)
- Sam LaPorta (13.58)
- Evan Engram (13.16)
- George Kittle (13.10)
Here are the top plays this week via the Week 15 DFS: Tight End Report. Also, check out the Week 14 DFS: QB Report, RB Report, and WR Report.
Elite Option
Travis Kelce, KC (DK – $7,600/FD – $7,500)
Patrick Mahomes hasn’t been able to get Kelce rolling over the six weeks. Over this span, he caught 32 of his 44 targets for 371 yards and one touchdown, leading to only steady fantasy production in five games (11.80, 16.40, 15.10, 12.10, and 14.30). His recent stats don’t command his current salary. Kelce has one impact game (12/179/1) and a pair of 20.00-point outcomes (22.70 and 21.40), all coming between Week 5 and Week 7. Over his past five matchups, he averaged seven targets (8.9 in 2022 and 8.4 in 2021).
New England climbed to sixth in tight end defense (56/500/1 on 82 targets). Foster Moreau is the only tight end to score vs. the defense. The Raiders (7/94) and Bills (9/85) had the most success in fantasy points. Overall, the Patriots’ opposing TEs have 696 catches for 6,848 yards and 41 touchdowns on 1,007 targets, coming to 10.63 fantasy points per game (the best tight end schedule in the league).
Kelce should reach 100 catches with more than 1,000 yards receiving again this year, giving fantasy teams an edge at the tight end position. Unfortunately, it hasn’t been as wide as in 2022 (5.93 fantasy points per game over the second-ranked tight end). His matchup looks below par, and his salary commands 30+ fantasy points to be an edge. The Chiefs need to find their offensive identity after losing three games (53 combined points) over the past four weeks. I can dismiss him due to Kelce being the top target in Kansas City’s offense with scoring upside…
